Nice. Now you just need the spoiler to top it off.

Yeah, I was thinking with this car to be spoiler (trunk) Free. However I have been thiking about getting the Stillen Spoiler and maybe painting it BLK- that might be too much (loud), but not sure... we'll see.

More to come very soon.

Thanks

Car is really clean. I'm just so iffy about the whole eibach thing. It doesn't seem to drop the car much or eliminate that gap :/

Thanks.

As far as the drop goes, I personally think its plenty, you really do not want to lower anymore than this, remember this is a larger lux sedan: 1.3-1.4 all around drop. Well, I bought this car more for comfort and lux riding unlike my previus sports cars.

Will post some close up pix off the gap. PS. Its probably gonna drop another .1-.3 inches with in the next week or so as it settles in...

With respect to stiffness, I would say its about 15-20% more than stock, which I think its pretty good, just right. I am satisfied.

Nice drop, I would suggest the factory rear spoiler to really set off the rear end!

Yeah man, thanks...

I am gonna wait and see how I feel once I am done with a coufew mods, and then I'll see.

Actually I've been giving it a lot of thoughts, if I should install one or not, not sure yet?

But if I get the spoiler, I am going with the Stillen one, its a bit smaller. Think looks more sporty; kind of like the AMG_M5_M3 Spoiler...

Also, if I should paint it Blk (might be to loud) or just white (might be better cause I want a clean/sharp look). Wish someone could photoshop them (both colors) for me!

thaks again you all...

Yea the stillen one looks pretty good, and I would just keep it white, to keep a clean look on the rear end, It looks exactly like the spoiler on the E63 AMG which I never noticed before.

You could pull it off, definitley but you would need some more black around that area, maybe you can do some vinyl work.

Contrasting lip looks good. Not a fan of the wheels though. It seems everyone is going with that look.
